Nanaimo Incorporates Rail Corridor into Long-Term Transit Plans

Nanaimo's city council has decided to include the rail corridor in its transit-oriented development plans, recognizing its potential for interurban light rail and active transit.

A motion put forward by Coun. Hilary Eastmure at a meeting on Monday, Oct. 6, directed staff to explore opportunities and create policies supporting transit-oriented development centers, including Country Club and Woodgrove, with clear connections to the rail system.

"We're doing this review right now. We're working on these transit-oriented development centres,"

said Eastmure. The city plan review aims to provide a framework for future "corridor-related transit."
